What do I need to apply for a business account?

When you're applying for a business transaction, savings or deposit account, we need to ask you a few questions about your business and the people involved in it. To save time, here's an overview of what you might need handy.

Meeting minutes showing the request authorising the opening of the account, full name and positions of signatories who will be operating the account, and method of operation (e.g. one or two people to sign)

If this is the first account your organisation has opened with us or there have been changes to the structure of your entity:

Strata plan or title if applicable

Certificate of Incorporation and Constitution for Incorporated Associations

Beneficial Owner(s), being the Chairperson, Secretary and Treasurer or equivalent officers will need to confirm their identity.

Government organisations, joint ventures or foreign or other companies

Please call 13 7000 for information on how to apply for a business account.

Why we need these details

Before you can open a business account, you and your business need to be identified under the provisions of the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006. The personal and business information, together with any supporting documents, allows us to verify your identity.

Ready to apply?

Once you've chosen the business account for you, you can apply online, at one of our branches or over the phone.
